Well, I got my new cam about 4 weeks ago and it is being installed right now. It's the Clevite (229-1834)that Reid P told me to get. Maybe I'll get about 30 more horses with this thing. It changes the firing order also. Now it will be 1-8-4-5-6-2-7-3, a more balanced firing order than the original 302 order.

There is just something pretty about a cam. I think I would frame that pic and hang it in my living room next to my wedding pics..
(I thought ReidP was using a SpeedPro. Is that the same as a Clevite?) ------------- Happy owner of a '66 and a '68 Mustang |

He told me he put a clevite in one of his boats, don't remember which one. If you really like cams, my brother made a lamp out of one just messing around. ------------- Tim D |
